Configure scopes in HELM Chart

Other
1

I am trying to deploy - for now as a test - a Couchbase setup with the ‘couchbase/couchbase-operator’ Chart on a K3d, as we are examning if couchbase is something we should aim for. I have a few buckets and need to configure scopes for these buckets. Yet no matter where I try to add them I get errors (got “array”, expected “map”, got “string”, expected “map”, unknown field “organisation”).

scopes:
  user:
    collections:
?
    name: user
  organisation:
    collections:
?
    name: organisation

buckets:
  default: null
  authentication:
    replicas: 1
    conflictResolution: seqno
    enableFlush: false
    memoryQuota: 100Mi
  user:
    replicas: 1
    conflictResolution: seqno
    enableFlush: false
    memoryQuota: 100Mi

The ? is that I used either a map (but don’t know what key/values to use) or as a list [‘user’, ‘organisation’]. I also try to add the scopes in the ‘buckets’ configuration, but then I need to use the resources key, but don’t know what I need to add there? Documentation of the chart is very unclear and I can not find anything else.

Can someone help me with this? (Without the scopes configuration, the yaml part works and am able to start a very basic couchbase cluster)

Kind regards,
Werner

Hi Werner,

You can find an example for how to define your scopes here as part of our helm chart repository.

Thanks,

Hi Justin,

Thank you for your answer, I really appreciate that. I had seen the file, but till I read your message for some reason it didn’t land, sorry about that!

I am now able to deploy it without any error. I have this right now (related to bucket/scopes, as I also have users configured which seems to work fine):

scopes:
  user:
    collections:
      managed: true
      preserveDefaultCollection: false
      resources:
      - kind: CouchbaseCollection
        name: "user"
      - kind: CouchbaseCollection
        name: "userapitoken"
    defaultScope: false
    name: user
  organisation:
    collections:
      managed: true
      preserveDefaultCollection: false
      resources:
      - kind: CouchbaseCollection
        name: "organisation"
    defaultScope: false
    name: organisation

buckets:
  default: null
  authentication:
    replicas: 1
    conflictResolution: seqno
    enableFlush: false
    memoryQuota: 100Mi
  user:
    replicas: 1
    conflictResolution: seqno
    enableFlush: false
    memoryQuota: 100Mi
    scopes:
      resources:
        - kind: CouchbaseScope
          name: "user"
        - kind: CouchbaseScope
          name: "organisation"

But when I look in the Admin UI, I see the buckets and when I click on “Scopes & Collections” for my ‘user’ bucket on the right side, I don’t see any of the scopes. Is that because I didn’t create a collection yet? I only see the “_default” and “_system” scopes in my overview.

I tried adding the following:

collections:
  user:
    name: user
  userapi:
    name: userapi
  organisation:
    name: organisation

But also no scopes or collections in my “Scopes & Collections” page.

I apologize if this feels like rookie mistakes. Thanks in advance.

Hey Werner,

I believe under your bucket definition for user, set user.scopes.managed to true. It should result in this field on your bucket being set to true

Yes, that works. Thank you very much @justin.ashworth !
